This version the original version is far better than the US's version. I won't add anything that is a spoiler. The acting is brilliant. The script is amazing.
I RECOMMEND WATCHING AT LEAST THE FIRST EPISODE AND DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE WATCHING OR NOT.

The concept of an autistic doctor could've been executed with more nuance and plausibility. I really hope Korean hospitals are nothing like what's portrayed here. People are constantly yelling at each other, and abusive bullying behaviour towards colleagues and patients alike seems to be the standard.
This the second South Korean drama series I've watched and I have to say I loved it. The premise was an interesting one, and I feel the writers, directors and producers did a superb job of bring this to life on screen.
Special recognition has to go to the truly superb acting performance of Joo Won. How he kept all of those mannerisms up throughout the series was amazing. Chae-Won Moon also deserves a special mention too. Her interplay with the other characters really helped bring the show alive, and the fact that she lights up the screen whenever she's on it makes it very pleasant watching.
I devoured the whole series in less than a month and there wasn't one period during that time when I lost interest. Gripping stuff.
Oh, and one more thing. Good Doctor had good positive messages throughout and didn't rely on sex and violence to keep the viewer hooked.
Highly recommended and high praise to all involved.

GOOD DOCTOR (2013) was such a great show. This was the second K-drama I ever watched, back when it first came out and it got me hooked. I found the concept so touching and accepting, although there are some painful parts in it as well. I absolutely love the concept. There should be many more shows like this one. People with differences, limitations or supposed "disabilities" can achieve great things, help others and change the world. In truth, many are not lacking but gifted. This series tried to make a statement that everyone deserves respect and absolute equality, regardless of their differences and/or medical condition. This show was so well done and very intense. The characters were all so well casted as well. An amazing medical drama with a lot of heart. Loved it! I loved the character of Park Si-on.
It's beautifully made with a good cast. The struggles with autism are portrayed in a hard way but also realistic. I didn't like the soundtrack and some exaggerations in medical cases. The love story is also please although improbable and they don't show deeply the hardships of this kind of relationship but is an altruistic love so it's beautiful! Watch it :)
